mistaken CL

Today i was driving down on the strip at ft. lauderdale beach...And I thought I saw a CL from a distance and it lookd all different. Im like ohh shit this CL is kittn up. But it was way far away...Finially catch up and guess what it iz! A freakin Kia Rio! hahah i couldnt believe i mistaken a kia rio for a nice ass cl. I shouldnt even put the two cars in the same sentence. Remember i was like really far down the street and I guess between the sun and margaritaz down there i was lil tipsy.

But then i realized, If anyone wanted to try something custom they can always mold on the kia rio tail lights ahahh they are the same general shape. Maybe one you ricerz who keep askin bout altezza's? haha

There have been times (at night) that I've mistaken a Kia for a CL. The tailights look slightly similar at a distance. The closer I got, the more I KNEW it coulcn't be a CL (our taillights are fairly unique.

How embarassing.

This same thing happened to me!!! Only that I got the CL confused with a neon!!! At night, the lights on the neon look very similar to that of the CL!
